Excellent!!! - Tour guide Emre was amazing! He was so friendly and knowledgeable. We had a tour not only of food, but of the neighborhoods we walked through. He knows so much history, great stories about different locations. And he has a lot of recommendations for all kinds of food places! He sent clear details about our meeting point, which was very helpful. And he also sent helpful general information about getting around Istanbul. Would absolutely recommend this tour with Emre!!!

Istanbul Food Tour - What a great way to spend an afternoon! Emre clearly loves sharing Istanbul with new friends. He not only introduced us to some of the most yummy and historic eateries and shops in Beyoğlu, he also shared many other interesting cultural and personal highlights that helped us get beneath the surface layer of the city. Emre is super personable, it was like spending the day with an old friend.

Last-minute cancellation via email only - Cancelled with only two hours notice, and via email not WhatsApp or text meaning I didn't see it, so we made a wasted trip. I realize things happen but a text is not too much to ask.
